Managing clienteling conversations

Prev Next

Associate App allows you to view all of the active conversations (any conversation with activity in the last 120 days) going on in your store two different ways:

  • To view messages that you, an associate, have sent to a customer via NewStore Associate App, tap   > Chat > My Inbox.

  • To view messages that all associates in the store have sent to customers, tap  > Chat > Store Inbox.

These two views allow associates to cover for each other between shifts as well as provides management insight into ongoing conversations between their team and customers.

If there are unread messages in any of the inboxes, you are notified via a bubble counter on Chat or a banner at the top of the screen when you log into NewStore Associate App.

Important

As a specific phone number assigned to the store is used for Clienteling, only the associates assigned to the same store can view Clienteling messages for the store.

Using the clienteling inbox search and filters

Store associates can search and filter conversations in the Clienteling inbox to find a conversation with a specific customer.
